Sometime when i boot up my PC, it boots straight to bios instead of windows, and if i try and boot windows in bios it doesn't even detect my SSD (which has my windows on it.) i dont know if there is something wrong with my SSD or what. i've looked at the windows health report, and it says my PC is in tip top shape, but it just isn't. I don't know if my SSD is corrupt, or if one of the cables going into my SSD is a bit torn or broken. thanks in advance.

Solution
Have you changed SATA cable of your SSD? If not change it.
Load CrystalDiskInfo and check SMART values of your SSD.
It look like your SSD is failing.

By the way it is not a good practice to keep the SSD that full. Its used space should be less than 80 as a rule of thumb.
